LEGO The Hobbit Gandalf at Dol Guldur (30213) Polybag Now Available at TRU (USA)

December 1, 2012 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The Gandalf polybag that we saw last week showing up on eBay has now shown up on the Toys R Us website. It is listed under the Lord of the Rings LEGO theme and is selling for $3.99 each. The set probably depicts Gandalf at Dol Guldur where he finds Thrain, father of Thorin Oakenshield, held prisoner and receives the map and Key of the Lonely Mountain. If you still find the polybag available online, I suggest picking it as these polybags are highly sought after. It is currently the cheapest way to get one but LEGO Shop@Home will be offering the polybag with a purchase of LEGO The Hobbit An Unexpected Gathering Board Game (3920) from Dec 9th – 31st, while supplies last.

The Alien Beetle has a green exoskeleton printing on both the torso and the legs. It’s head is one big piece with four large black eyes. It’s accessory is a gray sonic gun with a pink stud in the front.

The Robot is on the blue squad and has some nice printing on both sides of the torso. The headpiece is shaped very well for a robot. It has a brick-built blaster with scope as well as a jet pack for accessories.

The main part of the set is the Space Swarmer. It looks similar to a large beetle. The majority colors of the Swarmer is bright green and red. The cockpit opens up to sit the Alien Beetle inside. The wings are able to flap much like a beetle’s. The main function is that it has a grabbing action to capture the Robot.
